THE INTERNATIONAL DAY OF YOGA & THE BREATHING EXERCISES


 OXYGEN AND PRANAYAMA

We ran short of oxygen only about a month back and to replenish it oxygen expresses were started to make oxygen reach hospitals. About 37000 metric tons of medical oxygen have been supplied from the places of production to the places of requirements by the Indian Railways. Lives have been saved. Kudos to the planning of the GoI, and support to the plans by the Indian Railways. There were others like the Indian Army and the Indian Air Force also who made the logistic effective and successful. Kudos to all of these organizations and also to the team members therein.

This was to tide over the emergency situations that arose due to the COVID19 virus. But we all citizens have responsibilities towards ourselves and our family members to keep us strong naturally. The body system has to be maintained so that oxygen level is maintained in our body. Pranayama or breathing exercises are one of the ways to do it.

The fall in the percentages of oxygen in our body can be maintained by practicing Pranayama like kapalbhati (कपालभाती or कपालशोधन), and anulom vilom (अनुलोम-विलोम). Bellows breathing or Bhastrika (भस्त्रिका or धौंकनी), Om chanting (ओंकार or ॐ chanting or उद्गीथ).

It is unethical and the end result most often is “bad”. When I got up from my bed, I found that it is raining. My mood swivelled towards unpleasantness. I was expecting a sunrise, but the Sun was covered by dark clouds. Now it is the month of October, ad it is unpleasant to see it raining. In India, this is one of the pleasant months. I remember that just adequate temperature and cleanness in the weather and the atmosphere. It feels coolness and serenity during the period that commences with October and ends with the month of November. Then winter sets in. The year 2020 has not been good for humans. Plenty of rain causing deluge everywhere, fires in natural jungles and factories, weather...

स्थानीय कॉलेज में अर्थशास्त्र के एक प्रोफेसर ने अपने एक बयान में कहा – “उसने पहले कभी किसी छात्र को फेल नहीं किया था, पर हाल ही में उसने एक पूरी की पूरी क्लास को फेल कर दिया है l” क्योंकि उस क्लास ने दृढ़तापूर्वक यह कहा था कि... “समाजवाद सफल होगा और न कोई गरीब होगा और न कोई धनी होगा”, क्योंकि उन सब का दृढ़ विश्वास है कि यह सबको समान करने वाला एक महान सिद्धांत है..... तब प्रोफेसर ने कहा– "अच्छा ठीक है ! आओ हम क्लास में समाजवाद के अनुरूप एक प्रयोग करते हैं- सफलता पाने वाले सभी छात्रों के विभिन्न ग्रेड (अंकों) का औसत निकाला जाएगा और सबको वही एक काॅमन ग्रेड दिया जायेगा।” पहली परीक्षा के बाद.....सभी ग्रेडों का औसत निकाला गया और प्रत्येक छात्र को B ग्रेड प्राप्त हुआl जिन छात्रों ने कठिन परिश्रम किया था वे परेशान हो गए और जिन्होंने कम पढ़ाई की थी वे खुश हुए l दूसरी परीक्षा के लिए कम पढ़ने वाले छात्रों ने पहले से भी और कम पढ़ाई की और जिहोंने कठिन परिश्रम किया था, उन्होंने यह तय किया कि वे भी मुफ़्त का ग्रेड प्राप्त करेंगे और उन्होंने भी कम पढ़ाई की l दूसरी परीक्षा में ...... सभी का काॅमन ग्रे...
